Looks like Find it First is by far more popular than a prize draw...
Thank you to everyone supporting us. Re: Rigging as well as IPM and consequently had an investigation by ASA who have even looked at all the winners emails and contacted the winner. We will continue to be monitor AT OUR REQUEST so that we 1) Give you all confidence in our competitions 2) Have first hand advice on running these competitions in a fair way.
Once again, thank you for your feedback and comments. Nice to find a forum that's actually got adults with mature and logical opinions. :T0 -

I voted first to find.
This is the first of these competitions I have entered and I admit it was a challenge (and drove me mad until I found it!) but that made it more fun to enter.
A random draw would be fine if there was no chance of screenshots being passed around lol! IMHO I think it is a little unfair on the first person who will have spent time & effort on this only to decrease their numeral chance of winning because of the mass who will just copy the screenshot. I'm not going to lie, believe me that would have been a simpler option for me too!
For those who don't feel they have the time to spend on this - well I'm sure there are lots of people who don't/can't enter every single competition made known to them for many different reasons... Would it be too much to pass on this one?Thanks to all who post comps! :A0 -

If I found it I wouldn't share where it was, just being honest :rotfl:

Completely with CXL and Idontmind, it's hours spent trying to find the thing! And I genuinely enjoyed the added adrenaline thrill of the race to find it!"It is better to be thought a fool than to speak up and remove all doubt"

Sorry to be cynical but this wouldn't stop people from privately sharing with their friends! (.. which in itself is understandable. Look how many people are helping out complete strangers here as it is) Thanks to all who post comps! :A0
